Popular speaker and author of Lessons I Learned in the Dark, Jennifer Rothschild, has a message for every woman: Words are powerful. Especially the words women speak to themselves. All too often, what they say to themselves when they lie in bed at night or look in the mirror in the morning is not even close to the words God wants them to speak to their souls.

Scripture has a lot to say about this “soul talk.” Because many women feel overwhelmed and struggle with issues of self–esteem, depression, and discouragement, Jennifer shares practically and helpfully from her own life and from Scripture to show how every woman can turn her words—and her life—around for good.
She offers 7 powerful things a woman can say to her soul, including: Press On – “March on my soul, be strong” (Judges 5:21) Look Up – “My soul, put your hope in God” (Psalm 42:5) Chill Out – “Be at rest, O my soul” (Psalm 116:7).
Rothschild compares the minds’ “self talk” to an overstuffed clothing closet—encouraging readers to clean out the junk and fill it with a beautiful wardrobe. “We have to replace the hidden negative thoughts and failures with positive truths and sensible soul talk,” says Rothschild.
Many people find themselves struggling with self-esteem, body image, stress and other unhealthy thoughts and emotions. According to Rothschild, what we think about often has a ripple effect on nearly every area of our lives. “Soul talk is about replacing the lies you may have been telling yourself with the truth,” she says.
In Self Talk, Soul Talk, Rothschild examines a number of relevant topics, guiding readers to:
-
Move beyond disappointing personal circumstances
-
Release your painful past and focus on pleasant memories
-
Replace negative emotions with productive soul talk
-
Confront personal issues with positive, spirited self talk
-
Refocus your priorities and connect with others unselfishly
Weaving tales of her own personal story with soul-talk questions and inspirational passages, Rothschild provides sensible advice to readers who, like her, are determined to pursue healthy and productive lives but have been sidetracked along the way.
Self Talk, Soul Talk is perfect for individual or small group study and includes interactive pages and Scripture passages for digging deeper.
